Just now, Li Hao suddenly remembered the gray-robed old man yesterday, and thought that he still had to go to him to grow vegetables, look at the time, and get up scared without hindsight.

After running to the vegetable patch behind the grove, he found that the gray-robed old man was already there.

trotted over and kicked angrily: "Senior, I'm here." ”

Maybe seeing him come so late, the gray-robed old man said angrily: "I thought you weren't coming, I was going to go out to find your doll, and let you lie in bed for half a year after I found it." ”

Li Hao broke out in a cold sweat, "This senior is really ruthless." ”

The gray-robed old man continued: "You go and clean up the weeds in the vegetable patch for me first. ”

Li Hao had no choice but to honestly walk into the vegetable field and squat down to clean up little by little.

"Senior, I have one thing to say." Li Hao, who was squatting, said in an inquiring colloquial language while pulling weeds.

"Say."

"I'm going to the border tomorrow to escort supplies, so I can't come here." Li Hao glanced at him and said.

The gray-robed old man listened to his words, and was originally sitting on a small stone mountain, but he stood up at once, jumped to his side, and said, "You kid, you want to play tricks again, don't make excuses for me, come here honestly." ”

"Really, I'm really going to leave tomorrow, please seniors fulfill it." Li Hao didn't give up.

Seeing that he was so resolute, the gray-robed old man thought about it, took a step back and said, "You wait for me here first, I'll go back, if I come back, I find that you are not there, hehe, you know the consequences." After saying that, he suddenly disappeared. Li Hao looked at the gray-robed old man stupidly and disappeared for a moment, and his fear of him deepened again.

After a long time, the gray-robed old man had not come back, and the afternoon class had already started, but Li Hao was still pulling grass in the vegetable field. The scorching sun shone on his face, and drops of sweat kept leaving on his face. He stood up. wiped his face, looked into the distance, and sighed, "How long does he have to make me wait?" ”

A few more hours passed. Li Hao had almost pulled out the weeds, and the gray-robed old man appeared. I saw that the gray-robed old man had returned. He immediately ran over and said, "Senior." ”

The gray-robed old man walked over and said in a very calm tone: "I just went to the academy to inquire, and indeed you are going to the border gate tomorrow, forget it, you can go, but after you come back from the border pass, you still have to come here, as for the few days that you have been delayed by going to the border gate." You can make it up later. ”

Li Hao thought helplessly: "I have to make up for it when I come back, I don't owe you money, and you don't pay me salary, it's too domineering." ”

"Yo, yes, weeds are all pulled, it seems that you are really rushing this live material." The gray-robed old man found that the weeds in the vegetable patch had been cleared, and nodded with satisfaction.

Li Hao was speechless, and thought to him: "Standing until you speak, you don't have back pain." ”

"You did a good job today. You can go back, and when you come back from the border pass, bring me back some souvenirs for this old man. The gray-robed old man left with a smile.

I saw the gray-robed old man leave. Li Hao said angrily: "You old man is too shameless, I have never seen such a shameless person as you, you have lived so old in vain, and you still need special products, Lao Tzu will give you a rake of shit, do you want to ......"

Li Hao scolded for a long time, and when he was tired of scolding, he went back to find Mike and Srui, and he would go to the barracks later.

※※※

After Li Hao and the two of them had a round in the classroom, they walked all the way to the military camp outside the city.

On the road. Mike asked, "Where are you going in the afternoon?" ”

Li Hao said: "Don't ask, I don't want to say." Not a good thing anyway. ”

Mike's interest came at this time, he liked to inquire about other people's rights and wrongs the most. "Tell me what?"

"Don't really ask." Li Hao still didn't want to say it.

The more he didn't want to say, the more interested Mike became, "No, you have to say, did you go on a date with that beauty?" boldly guessed. …

Li Hao looked at him with a smirk and said scoundrelly: "I said that I planted vegetables for an afternoon today, will you believe it?" ”

"I'm weird." Mike Road.

"Look, I said you don't believe it." Li Hao said.

"So tell me where you planted?" Mike asked incredulously.

"In the woods behind the Magic Water Building."

"Haha, let's show the stuffing, that place is a forbidden place, how can you grow vegetables there." Mike laughed.

Li Hao looked at him, knowing that he wouldn't believe it no matter how he said it, so he simply didn't say anything and let him think about it for himself.

"Stop, the barracks are heavy, and the idle people are leaving quickly." While the three of them were laughing, a pair of soldiers with spears shouted at them at a junction leading to the barracks.

"A few officials, we are cadets of the Royal Academy of Mick, and today we are the ones who have come to the barracks to prepare to deliver supplies tomorrow." Mike showed them a certificate.

The soldier who walked in front took the certificate, opened it and looked at it, and said: "The proof is true, you can go over, remember to go directly, don't turn around, and someone will guide you when you get to the barracks." "Hand the proof to Mike again.

After Li Hao and the three of them thanked him, they dared to go in the direction that the soldier said.

"Kill, kill, kill......" Before I saw the barracks, I heard the sound of fighting in front of me. That's it ahead, let's hurry. Sri, who had never been a talker, said suddenly, and it seemed that he couldn't wait.

"Stop." As soon as Sri finished speaking, a shocking shout came.

Looking ahead, two older soldiers stood at the turn in front of them.

"Uncle Wang, it's you!" At this time, Mike found out that the other party was his uncle.

"Xiao Shen, it's your little doll." The soldier on the right in front of him shouted when he saw that it was Mike Dao.

Mike smiled and explained to Li Hao and Si Rui: "Don't be nervous, he is my father's comrade-in-arms, Uncle Wang. ”

Uncle Wang and the soldiers next to him walked over and said to Mike: "Xiao Shen, what are you doing here, this is an important place in the barracks, if someone finds out, you will have to be whipped at least a hundred times." ”

"Uncle Wang, you underestimate me too much, I have a mission." Mike put the certificate in front of Uncle Wang again.

After receiving the certificate, Uncle Wang opened it suspiciously, thinking about what kind of fame this kid is doing. After reading the proof, Uncle Wang laughed and said, "Okay, you kid is very good, much better than your father." ”

Mike straightened his chest. He swore and said: "That is, my father only made a small contribution, and I want to make a big contribution." I will be knighted in the future. ”

"There's a chance, that's all. It's better than your father, and when your father came to be a soldier, he didn't come on his own initiative. Uncle Wang said with a smile.

Li Hao thought to himself: "Mike is not the same, he didn't want to come at first. ”

"Okay, don't talk about it, I'll take you in, you stand here for me, I'll go back." After Uncle Wang and Mike finished speaking. Said to another person.

"Okay, no problem." The man replied.

Turning the corner in front, an imposing military camp immediately appeared in the eyes of Li Hao and the three of them. The three of them were a little stunned when they saw such a grand military camp for the first time.

The outside of this barracks was surrounded by large logs, each of which had four or five people standing in a pile so thick that I didn't know how to find so many pieces of wood.

Uncle Wang patted Li Hao and them in a daze, and said with a smile: "I'll be surprised when I go in." ”

"What, and surprise, what?" After listening to Uncle Wang's words, Mike asked curiously.

"Haha. The secret, I'll find out when I go inside. "Uncle Wang pretended to be mysterious.

With Uncle Wang leading the way, Li Hao and the others easily entered the barracks. When they entered the barracks. They were so surprised to find out that what Uncle Wang said was right. …

After entering, I found that the entire barracks area was actually in a large valley, and the entire valley was basically occupied.

The gate of the barracks was built on a flat hillside, so they could see the whole barracks as well.

"Uncle Wang, how big is this barracks? How many people are there? Mike asked, with his mouth wide open.

Uncle Wang looked at the end of the barracks and said, "I don't know how big it is, because no one has measured it." But I know that at its peak, it can accommodate two million people. ”

"Two million people." Li Hao and the three of them were surprised again.

"Huh. This is only the most of the time, not so much in general. For example, there are only about 500,000 people in the entire military camp now. ”

"500,000 people are just that." Li Hao said depressedly.

After sighing, Li Hao still had to do what they had to do. Uncle Wang took the three of them through the middle of the barracks, and Li Hao and the three of them looked around all the way, asking uncomfortable questions, and Uncle Wang answered them one by one.

"Okay, when the quartermaster arrives, I'll send it here, after all, my position is relatively low, and when it's okay, I can't go in." Uncle Wang said by the side of a big tent.

"Then we will thank Uncle Wang for leading the way." Li Hao said.

Uncle Wang nodded and said to Mike, "I'll go to your house to have a drink with your father in the evening." ”

"Okay, I'll ask my mother to prepare some food and drinks for you when I go back." Mike nodded.

Uncle Wang left quickly, Li Hao looked at the big tent, a little overwhelmed, he looked at Mike, and said, "You have a certificate on you, you lead the way." ”

"Okay, you guys keep up." Mike walked inside.

Not to mention that the quartermaster office is very large, after walking in, I saw several GIs moving chairs at a glance. Mike walked up and asked, "Brother Jun, may I ask, where is the commander of your quartermaster's office?" ”

The soldier raised his head and saw that it was a few very old teenagers asking him, so he didn't look at them, glanced at them a few times, and said, "Later, go find it yourself, it's annoying to death." ”

Mike was very disgusted with his attitude and wanted to go up to theorize, but was stopped by Li Hao and said, "Mike, let's go first, this is a military camp after all, we can't afford to provoke it." ”

Sri also stepped forward and pulled him, saying not to cause too much trouble.

In the end, the three of them found the commander of the quartermaster department in the back, and after Mike showed him the certificate issued by the academy, the commander said very politely: "First of all, I want to thank you for taking the initiative to come to our army this time, I am here to welcome you on behalf of the army, and after this escort back, we will thank you well." ”

This quartermaster is already very old, but his left foot is broken, which should be a wound left by the battlefield.

didn't stay long in the quartermaster department, Li Hao and the three of them came out, and when they came out, they happened to meet the soldier who had a very domineering attitude just now.

Li Hao and the others ignored him, passed by the man, and didn't even glance at him. The soldier was a little angry when he saw the three teenagers ignoring him like this, and felt that his pride had been insulted.

"Stop, what are you doing?" The soldier suddenly yelled at Li Hao.

Mike was already angry with him, and seeing that he hadn't gone to trouble him, he came to him first, so he was very angry and said, "What do we have to do here?" ”

Seeing that the other party spoke so arrogantly. The soldier shouted, "I now suspect that you are a spy of the enemy, come with me." ”

When Li Hao heard this, he understood that this person was going to frame himself. He strode up to Mike and said, "You say we're spies." What credentials are available. ”

The man was stunned for a moment, and thought for a while, "You said what you came to the barracks for, don't you know that trespassing in the barracks is a capital crime?" The man asked aggressively.

Li Hao saw that he insisted on buttoning this big hat on himself, and he was not polite at all: "Then what evidence do you have that you are from the barracks, I think you are a thief in a military uniform." Li Hao buckled him up with a big hat. …

When the soldier heard this, he was furious and said: "You kid is looking for death, I will let you taste the strength of why I can survive on the battlefield today." ”

There's movement over here. It had already attracted the attention of other soldiers around, and life in the barracks was originally very boring, and when someone was about to fight, many people immediately came to watch.

Seeing that there were a lot of people coming, the soldier seemed to have confidence at once, and he sped up and rushed over. It's a pity that he has the courage, and his strength is still a big step behind.

"Bang" Li Hao kicked him away.

After rolling on the ground a few times, the soldier stood up and touched the stomach that was kicked by Li Hao. Gritting his teeth, he said fiercely: "He is a spy." Seize him. Seeing that Li Hao and his gang were stronger than themselves, they simply took advantage of the fact that they were soldiers to wronged them. But, perhaps, he overestimated himself. As soon as the words just came out, after a while, no one stepped forward to help. And the onlookers looked at him like an idiot.

Li Hao: They were scared into a lot of cold sweat just now because of that sentence. After calming down, I looked at the soldier and felt really pitiful. After being a soldier for so long, there is not even a person who can stand up and help him.

"Hurry up, they're spies, hurry. This is a good opportunity to make meritorious contributions. The man was still calling. But still no one paid any attention to him.

"Don't make a fuss, you're not ashamed." Then. A voice came from behind the quartermaster's office. Everyone looked over there and saw an old man on crutches struggling to come out. This person is the officer who just separated from Li Hao and them.

"Sir." After this old officer came out. Except for Li Hao and the three of them, the people here all saluted him.

The old officer walked over, glanced at the soldier fiercely, and said, "Are you still a soldier?" If it weren't for the fact that your father died on the battlefield, I would have wanted to beat you up and throw you out of the barracks. After thinking about it, he said: "I pretended to be dead on the battlefield, and when I came back, there was trouble everywhere." That's it, you go, maybe life in the barracks is not for you. With that, he turned around and turned his back to him.

"Get out." Just after the old officer said this, all the soldiers in the audience shouted in unison.

The soldier originally wanted to plead with the old officer, but now that everyone in the audience was shouting at him to get out, he couldn't stay here, turned his head, glanced at Li Hao and the three of them fiercely, and left in a gloomy manner.

"Three little friends, don't take what happened just now, after all, the military camp is so big, and there are all kinds of people." When the old officer saw the soldier leaving, he comforted the three of Li Hao.

Now that the soldier had been kicked out, Li Hao and the others refused to say anything more, and smiled at the old officer: "It's still that we are causing you trouble." ”

The old officer saw that the three of them were very polite, and he was not proud of being a top student of Mick Academy, and his impression of them was a little better.

"It's not too early, you go back and rest, get a good night's sleep, it may be difficult to sleep in the next few days." The old officer said.

"Hmm."

After returning from the barracks, Li Hao sat on the bed, devoting himself to cultivating "Mixed Yuan", and he was going to the border tomorrow, and he didn't know how many dangers he would encounter along the way, and a little more strength would have more money to save his life.

It was just dark, and a wind blew into Li Hao's cabin, blowing out the lights on the table in the room. Li Hao's whole body trembled and suddenly woke up. Since he had been cultivating as soon as he came back, he hadn't eaten dinner yet, and now his body was blown by the cold wind just now, and he suddenly felt cold and hungry.

Walking out of the wooden house, he looked in the direction of the cafeteria, and said, "It's already dark, and the canteen may have closed." "I touched my belly, and it was empty." Hey, let's go out and see if there's anything to eat. ”

When he was about to leave, he thought again: "Will you go to the eldest lady's to practice writing later?" After that, he smiled and said, "Forget it, I just had a little quarrel with her during the day, so why bother sticking someone else's cold ass." ”…

Out of the house, came to the lively Weizhen Street. Li Hao has come to visit the night market for the second time. The last time I was pulled out by Xiao Bing, I finally had to know a big secret about myself.

"Dumplings, dumplings. Delicious dumplings ......" At the door of the restaurant on the street, a little boy of seven or eight years old was shouting.

"Dumplings. There are dumplings in this world? Li Hao looked at it unexpectedly, "Yes, it's the dumplings that you shouted." So he walked over and tasted what the dumplings of this world tasted like.

"A bowl of dumplings." After entering the store, Li Hao greeted.

"Hmm." The little boy outside the door, after seeing someone coming in, asked for a dumpling, and hurried into the back of the store. Li Hao sat in the middle of the hotel. Looking around, I was very dissatisfied with the layout of this small shop. said: "The tables should be arranged neatly in a row, how can there be one in the east and one in the west, and the guests have to go in circles when they come in." ”

The speed of this shop is quite fast, and before Li Hao's bench is hot, the little boy brings the dumplings. "Big brother, your dumplings." The little boy obediently put a plate in front of Li Hao.

Li Hao covered the back of the little boy's head, then took out a fork and prepared to taste it. When he put his face on the plate. He was embarrassed, because what he saw was not the white, chubby dumpling he remembered. It's black, skinny sticks.

Li Hao asked the little boy next to him suspiciously: "Is this a dumpling?" ”

"Yes, this is a dumpling, it's delicious, big brother, haven't you eaten it before?" The little boy blinked.

"I've eaten it, but you dumplings, hehe. It's the first time I've seen it. Li Hao smiled bitterly.

"What kind of dumplings did the big brother eat originally?" The little boy asked.

Li Hao thought about it, but still didn't say it, anyway, no one had seen it. "I'll let you see it when I have a chance." Li Hao didn't want to refuse directly. He chopped the dumplings on the plate. Found this thing still a bit hard. I simply put down the fork and picked one up directly with my hand and put it in my mouth.

"Whew. ...... "Li Hao tried to bite it to pieces, and it was at the moment of biting. There is a very special fragrance coming out of this black dumpling, which is the taste that Li Hao has known from before.

After eating the first one, I immediately want to eat the second one, and then the three............ The boss came to another plate, and after Li Hao ate the first plate, he didn't feel enough.

After half an hour, "Oh" Zhou Sanzhuang burped, touched his big belly, and then looked at the five plates in front of him. said: "No, if you eat it again, you will have to hang it here." ”

"Hey. Li Hao shouted at the little boy who was still calling at the door. When the little boy heard this, he ran over and said, "Big brother, do you want a plate?" ”

Li Hao smiled: "Hehe, no need, come back another day." With that, he took a gold coin from his bag and put it on the table, saying, "This gold coin should be enough." ”

"Enough, there are many of them, I'll go to my mother to make up the money." The little boy ran into the back room.

Li Hao saw the little boy running in, and did not wait here for him to come back to make up the money, but directly stood up and went back to Sima Mansion.

Because he had eaten too much, Li Hao struggled all the way back to the cabin with his belly. "Hey, don't eat so hard in the future, it's too much to bear."

※※※

Early the next morning, when the sun in the sky had not yet risen and the world was still in darkness, Li Hao walked out of Sima's Mansion with a satchel on his back.

"Li Hao, why are you here so late, we've been waiting for a long time." Outside the barracks where Li Hao came yesterday, Mike complained.

"I think it's too early, how can I say it's too late." Li Hao clearly remembered that today was the time when the sun had just come out, and now the sun has not come out, and the sky is dark.

"Brother Zhou, in fact, I was so nervous that I didn't sleep all night, and before dawn, I called Mike out." Behind him, Si Rui answered honestly.

"Oh, that's it, relax, go, I'll go in." After Li Hao comforted him a few words, he walked into the barracks with the two of them and went straight to the quartermaster's office.

At this time, the Quartermaster Department was full of people inside and out, coming in and out. There were about two hundred cars waiting outside the door, and four demonic beasts were pulling each car together.

"It's spectacular, hundreds of Warcraft cars, I don't know how much food to pull." Mike sighed.

"Got in." Li Hao shouted and walked inside.

When Li Hao and the others walked into the back of the quartermaster's office, they saw the old officer from yesterday, sitting inside and reprimanding a group of soldiers. "Remember, this time is different, the materials this time are very important, there can't be a little mistake, I made a military order on it, understand?" (To be continued)
